The most racist of Poltergeists. Also, that subtitle is nowhere near as good as House II: The Second Story. I'd seen the original Poltergeist and Poltergeist III years ago, so I figured now was a good time to go back and knock out the rest of the original trilogy. All I knew going into this … Continue reading Poltergeist II: The Other Side (1986)
Years ago I caught part of this flick on television. The scene involves our heroine, Kelly, discovering that her pizza has a face right before it attacks her. This was forever burned into my brain apparently, because when I encountered that scene again on YouTube a few months ago, I immediately recalled it and decided … Continue reading House IV (1992)

The previous husband was an addict and a failure, and Dora tells her son that one day he … Continue reading Shock (1977)

But since it is an established franchise in horror, even if not one of the most popular, I figured I … Continue reading Amityville 3-D (1983)

Somewhere between chasing a caveman surrounded by claymation dinosaurs … Continue reading House II: The Second Story (1987)
You know all that stuff I said about terrible films having amazing movie posters back when I was talking about R.O.T.O.R.? Forget it, because this movie poster is awesome, and this movie is bad ass. In 1692, a witch was put to death by a local priest and his rural colonial parish somewhere in rural … Continue reading Superstition (1982)
